– The presidential elections are approaching. My successor will come. I would like it to be a successor who will responsibly and wisely work for the Republic and cooperate with Solidarity. Who will understand that Solidarity guards the interests of working people, which means the absolute majority of Polish society, that Solidarity is essentially their representative. […] So, if [the successor] wants to hear the voice of working people, and thus the majority of their own voters, they should listen to Solidarity, because it is Solidarity that speaks with their voice – said President Andrzej Duda during the XXXII National Congress of Delegates of NSZZ “Solidarność”.

– I ask you to mobilize the trade union structures and all those around you to go to these presidential elections. They are very important. […] We must cast our vote for a candidate who will most worthily represent Poland's interests […], also by representing Poland abroad and building our alliances, sustaining them and very often fighting for Poland's rights and its proper place on the international stage – he emphasized.
